I need to plot a portfolio frontier for 5 risky assets. I have done the efficient frontier and the current portfolio point, just missing CAL.

Is it always necessary to have risk-free assets in order to get the CAL line? This portfolio does not include the risk-free aseet. Also the risk-free rate is fixed, since the data for monthly return of T-bill is given, only one possible risk-free rate 2.91% from that.

Here are my calculations for this part that can generate the portfolio frontier.
